Blake is incredible. He is super professional, organized, and most importantly, he deeply cares about the significance of wedding photography. He really loves what he does and it is reflected in his work. You can trust him to capture those timeless moments that you want to hold onto forever as well as be really creative and fun with the photography. Super personable, made the whole day even more fun and also brought me a coffee out here of the kindness of his heart. Would hire him all over again!!!

Blake truly became a vendor friend! Photography was one of the most important things for my husband and I, and Blake made us feel so cared for every step of the way. From engagement photos to bridal portraits to our wedding day itself, knowing that we could trust Blake to do great work put us at ease. The way he captured our day so beautifully has helped us relive it, as well as see things we would've missed otherwise. He was professional, easy to get in touch with, and made us feel like friends. If you want someone who will care about you + the things you care about, Blake is your guy!

Blake is an absolute magician behind the camera. Having him as part of our wedding day was the best decision we made in planning our wedding. He captured every single emotion and moment so perfectly. There are moments that my husband and I didn't even know about but have been able to relive through the pictures. Our wedding gallery is the greatest wedding gift anyone could have ever given me. His photography is so much more than pictures on a screen. Every picture is so intentional and tells its own story.

Blake doesn't only take absolutely stunning pictures. He becomes so much more on the wedding day. He made me feel so relaxed and confident the entire evening. He was a calming presence for me from start to finish.

Thank you Blake for everything you do - we are so so so grateful!

Blake became one of the family on our wedding day! We got married towards the beginning of the pandemic, hence a very small wedding with ever changing plans leading up to the big day. Blake was one of the only pieces of the puzzle that remained constant and sure. He’s not only reliable, personable and fun but so so talented. He captured the day and all its’ sweet little moments better than we thought possible. Blake was thoughtful, brought us coffee, made sure we felt comfortable and saved the day BIG TIME when the phone capturing our live stream overheated. Blake graciously stayed longer than we had agreed on, capturing moments from our mini reception we thought wouldn’t be documented. He joined us at the family dinner table and was an absolute JOY to be around. We couldn’t recommend him higher and are so grateful for the new friend found in Blake. TEAM BLAKE FOREVER.

Mallory Chapman Married couple on 21 Nov 2020

Blake did our wedding in November during the pandemic. At times on our beautiful day, I would feel stressed and anxious about the fact that not all of my family was going to be there. Blake was the best person to be there for those emotions. He checked in with me, sped up shoots when I needed to just be done and go isolate for a few minutes, and he handled our very big and very crazy wedding party with the utmost patience. After our wedding, I felt sad that the day had gone by so fast and that I had missed sweet moments. But when my husband and I received our photos, I relived the day all over again, moment by moment, frame by frame. All of those memories I thought I had missed due to stress were captured by Blake, and I could not be more grateful. The photos are personable, stunning, warm, and perfect. My husband and I could not have picked a better, more professional photographer.
